Just because [Eb] I ran [Bb] out of gas
Just because [F] I spoke her [Bb] name somewhere
Just because I rang her number [Eb] by mistake
[Bb] She [F] thinks I [Bb] still
[F] [Bb] care

Step
[Eb] [Ab] closer, [Bbm] [Ab]
come on
[Ab]
If you'd like to take [Db] a look
We want to call [Ab] home, sweet home
I have nothing here to sell
Just some things that I'll tell you
[Bb] Some things I know will cheer you
[Eb] Walk to the bar
And [Ab] over there sits the chair
Where she'd bring the pay to me
She'd [Db] stand on her knees and whisper
Oh, [Ab] I love her
[Cm] [Fm] [Eb] But now she's gone forever
[Bb]
[Eb] [Ab] And this [Eb] old [Ab] house [Db] will [Eb] never [Db] [Ab] be the same
Without [Eb] the love that we [Ab] want to give
[Eb] Step [Ab] right in
[Bbm] [Ab]
Come on [Db] in
[Ab]
[N] I've built it well enough for an evening [Db] sunlit march
But [Ab] I'm moving
And this town's a-longin'
And it's just painful
[Bb] I ain't [Eb] never ashamed
[Ab] You might say that I'm a peckin' it hard
[Db] But you're rollin' me off [Ab] of the ball
Don't you worry, you better hide and suffer
I [Eb] mean, they write down [Ab] the law
Well, the race is on
Here come the rhymes, come [Db] back straight
Heartache, heart-broken [Ab] loser
Five teens are holding [Bb] back
They're trying [Eb] not to fall
[Ab] My heart's out of the run
Her [Db] love's transformed
[Ab] And you're sick
The race is on
Looks like heartache
And I'm out of mood at [Db] all
Hey [Eb] now, I'm not gonna [Ab] listen at all
[F]
[B] Till [F] I get over you, [Bb] or this
I watched the years pass [C] slowly by
She still prayed [F] upon his mind
He kept [C] her [Bb] picture [F] on his wall
Went half crazy [Bb] now
He [Cm] [Bb] still loved her [C] good all [Gm] along
[C] Hoping she'd come [F] back again
He [Dm] stopped for love
A [F]
place to leave the [Bb] bond
Oh, such [C] a damn way
He stopped for love [Db] today
